It very, VERY rarely happens that we look back at the biggest offseason spenders each year and decide that it was money well spent. "Winning the offseason" ain't worth much. Besides, as we have seen again and again, collecting talent and building a team are not the same thing. This is exactly why I despised the Russ Brandon years. A guy with a marketing background who was less focused on building and nurturing a team always looking for that splashy signing for Buffalo that would magically turn the franchise around. We would land some pricey FAs and yet year-after-year our team slogged away in the basement. You have to build a team from the ground up and you have to have a QB that can make it all work. I like the way Beane and McDermott have approached transforming this team. I don't know if I wanted them to resign so many of our starting oline FAs with the struggles they had run blocking and holding up against better interior DL players, but there is something to be said for rewarding loyalty and tweaking a roster rather than overhauling it. If anything Beane has insured we have good depth and a foundation to build off of if they inject some fresh blood in the trenches via draft of FA signing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shad is too preoccupied with other ventures and puts his moron failson in charge to drive the team into the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
